Why is it important to have an analytical method validated ?

Whatever your field, validation of an analytical method allows you to ensure the reliability and the tractility of results from a lab analysis on any given matrix.

What are the factors to take into account during the validation process ?

These are the main criteria to consider while validating an analytical method :

Specificity (or selectivity)
Reliability
- Repeatability
- Intermediate reliability
- Reproducibility
Accuracy
Linearity
Sensitivity
Detection limit (LoD) quantification limit (LoQ)
Stability
Robustness
Uncertainty of the measurement

What are the preexisting regulations surrounding the validation of analytical methods ?

Many available standards cover the validation of analytical methods and approval criteria, such as:

ISO 17025:2005 : General requirements for the competence of testing and calibration laboratories
FDA Guidance for Industry (July 2015): Analytical Procedures and Methods Validation for Drugs and Biologics
ICH Q2 (R1) : Validation of analytical methods : text and methodology
NF V03-110 May 2010 : Analysis of foodstuffs - Protocol of characterization for the validation of a quantitative method of analysis by construction of an accuracy profile
Analytical validation guide : SFSTP commission report – I methodology

ISO 5725-1:1994 : Accuracy (trueness and precision) of measurement methods and results
- - Part 1: General principles and definitions
  - Part 2: Basic method for the determination of repeatability and reproducibility of a standard measurement method
FDA Guidance for Industry (July 2015): Analytical Procedures and Methods Validation for Drugs and Biologics
NF T90-210 May 2009 : water quality - protocol for the initial method performance assessment in a laboratory
Citac / Eurachem Guide: Quality control in Analytical Chemistry
